Draw a box with a front, a side and a top. Color each of them with the same color but put different pencil pressure on each side.
Draw two tin can cylinders. When shading a rounded object, curve the shading to create accurate 3D.


Activity Two

Draw a rectangle on your page 15 cm by 18 cm. Inside the rectangle draw 7 random curving lines that cross each other.
Shade four of the shapes with one color from dark and intense to very very light as smoothly as possible.
Shade four of the shapes with two different colors the same way but from opposite directions. Shade two of the shapes (the biggest ones left) with three different colors the same way. Shade in the rest of the shapes with one, two or three colors.
The goal is to fade out the colors very slowly and very smoothly.

Activity 3Draw or trace three circles, one large, one medium and one small. Shade the small one with straight lines and even color to make it look flat. Shade the second one with one color from dark to light, be sure your pencil is travelling in a curve to produce a ball that looks round. Shade the biggest ball the same way with two colors.

Color Pencil Shading Project.

PROJECT ONE- use 12 x 18 paper


Use the techniques we have been working on and do a picture with color pencil.
  • There must be shading on the objects using the exercises we did earlier in the week.
  • There should be big objects and small objects.
  • Light and dark areas use bright intensity coloring and low intensity colors.
  • There must be layering of objects in the picture, parts of some objects hidden by parts of other objects.

The subject of your drawing is totally up to you. Ask Mrs. McLenehan to show you samples from years past or do a web search on color pencil art. Do not copy someone else’s work create your own.
